He opened his eyes again, the light didn't hurt as much this time and he managed to focus on the source of the softer voice. He tried to ignore the yelling one, he didn't wanna get yelled at, not when his head hurt so much. Nothing much really registered with what the man in the white coat said. "Who?" He asked, wondering exactly who this 'Mister King' was, was it him? He didn't wanna be called 'Mister' it was weird... wasn't it?

Eva's fist tighten a little when the two girls kept insisting they keep Aiden's family a secret. Sure, the guy didn't have a perfect family, hardly anyone did, but he still should know a little of it at least! If it wasn't for her brother being in the room and Aiden's current condition she would have gone off on Xion and the albino.
Dr. Shimazaki sighed and looked up at the three women for a moment. "Ladies, if you don't keep it down I'm gonna have to ask you to leave. Aiden doesn't need this kind of environment right now." with that he looked back at his patient.
"Sir," began the doctor. "I'm Dr. Shimazaki." he said kindly. "Your name is Aiden King, is there anything at all that you can remember?"

Aiden (that's what Dr. Shimazki had said his name was, so he'd go with that) shook his head. "I remember there was wind or something, but other than that not really..." He trailed off and then glanced at the other occupants of the room warily. He didn't really like the tension between them. Two seemed more familiar, but he didn't really know who they were or why they were that way. Maybe it was because one was... albino, that was the word, and the other looked about ready to murder the girl who looked a bit like the doctor.
He moved to sit up, not really pleased with being on his back. It made him feel weirdly vulnerable.

Xion walked over to Eva "I'm not saying never tell him.See how much he can remember about them first.Though I wouldn't advise telling him about why he hates Tekka ... if it gives them a chance at there being no rift between them I'm all for it" she whispered "I know it seems bad but they shouldn't hate each other like this"
She listened to him speak.He didn't even remember his own name "Xion.I'm Xion" she responded to the albino at long last.Please God ... just the name.

Locke nodded in agreement with Xion, she seemed able to add more reason to it than the albino could. All the Tora could come up with was: why remember something you hate when you can forget it, honestly forget it, and move on with your life?
"She's right," agreed Locke. "If you'd seen him before the fight, you'd want him to forget, too." She thought about that strange night when Aiden had been saying the most disturbing things the albino had ever wanted to hear. If the giant Ookami could recover his sanity, and never be like that again, it would be worth a few lost memories.

Eva listened to the two women, still irritated with them not wanting to tell Aiden about his family. She didn't know why she felt so upset about it, but it just seemed wrong to her, even if it was what screwed him up so bad.
She finally sighed. "Alright..." she muttered, giving in reluctantly. "But y'can't hide it from 'im forever, that just fucked up." With that, the blond leaned back against the wall to stay away from the whole picture. Aiden needed the attention right now.
The Doctor of the siblings looked at Aiden, keeping his calm composure. "Well, what about any of these ladies in here? They all came to see you, do they look familiar to you at all?" He wanted to see if Aiden could remember other people before doing any other tests on him.

Aiden glanced at the women in the room, the one standing off to the side didn't help him recollect anything, and neither did the albino. The raven-haired one with the green bracelet (he noted after a quick glance at his wrist that it was much like his own) didn't cause much more than a slight warmness in his chest, and he wasn't sure if it was good or not so he shook his head in the negative. It probably didn't count anyhow, he didn't remember anything even after seeing them.
"Nothing..." He said quietly, almost feeling like he was disappointing someone by saying it. He probably was, these ladies might have hoped he would remember whatever had happened before the wind. Why would they be here otherwise? Did they know him? Maybe they could tell him what had happened before the wind and the floating since he couldn't remember. That would be nice. He'd have liked to remember.

"Yeah I know Eva.I know" she muttered.She froze ... he didn't remember.The small amount of hope she had been shattered.Is this heartbreak ... it felt like a bullet to her chest.She looked down before walking to the door "I suppose someone should tell everyone else he's okay" she muttered before slamming the door shut.
She couldn't stay in there any longer ... not with how things were.She'd come back later ... when she was feeling better.

Locke stepped a little closer to Aiden and took a seat in the chair by his bed. The albino felt bad that Xion had been so upset by Aiden's lack of memory. Maybe she'd have to go talk to her later. The raven-haired Ookami seemed like a relatively nice girl, after all. Without really thinking, Locke reached up and took the giant's hand. Maybe remembering would be easier with physical contact.

Aiden twitched as the albino held his hand, flinched almost. He wasn't sure why, but the gesture didn't sit right. "Who are you?" He asked the albino, a bit curious. Suddenly a multitude of questions were on his mind and he looked to the albino to answer them. "And who was it who just left, and why are you all here? What happened? How'd I get like this? Who's she?" This one was directed towards the (almost?) sulking blond in the corner. He decided that it might be in his best interest to actually let the woman holding his hand answer some of his questions before he asked any more.

Eva listened to the albino and Aiden, turning her head the other way when Aiden had asked who she was. She wasn't in the mood for talking right now, at least not to Aiden. She wasn't sure why, though. Part of her said it was for the best that she didn't say anything to him until later, another part however wanted to sit down and talk to him to try helping him remember everything possible. Sorta weird, she didn't know him like Xion and the other woman knew him, and she usually wouldn't bother to help someone out that had tried hurting one of her friends. This really was confusing for the ex gang member, she wished things were more simple.
Anthony Shimazaki watched as the white haired woman sat down beside Aiden to try jogging his memory. "I think I'll wait a while to run any more tests on him." he decided, looking down at the albino. "But call for me immediately if he starts getting any headaches. I don't think I have to tell you to try jogging his memory as much as possible." he smiled politely, looking at the woman, then back to Aiden. "I'll be back later to check on you, Aiden."
He headed toward the door, muttering to Eva. "If he's your friend, I suggest you try helping him, Evangeline, he's going to need it." with that, he walked out of the room, leaving the three in there by themselves. Eva simply shrugged, not knowing what to say. She turned her head back in Aiden's direction, but still kept her eyes down a little.

Locke laughed and let go of Aiden's hand. He seemed not to like it, and making him uncomfortable was lowest on the albino's list.
"In order, Aiden," she answered. "I'm Locke, your, uh... best friend. The one who left is Xion. I don't know much about her, but we're all here to help you. You... had an accident... that involved falling off of a roof. As far as that other woman goes... Well, I have no idea. I suppose you could ask Dr. Shimazaki when he comes in again; he seems to know her." It was rather hard, answering these questions, especially when she didn't want to divulge all of the details. Anything that would reinstate Aiden's rage was scratched out of the priority list.

Xion sat in the corridor for a while ... she was trying to build up the motivation to go back in.She didn't want to but her head told her she should.The least she could do was try and help him.
She took a deep breath and held the door handle and slowly went in "Sorry" she apologized "I was being a prat"She stood next to the windowsill resting her elbows on the ledge.She wouldn't look at him,infact she avoided all eye contact with everybody

Aiden decided that Locke was being pretty helpful, so she probably was his best friend. She seemed nice, too. The blond by the door didn't seem very friendly and he doubted if he had known her well... Xion FELT familiar, but he couldn't pinpoint what it was... though since she wasn't really looking his way he assumed that maybe he hadn't known her very well. But that wouldn't make since if she felt more familiar than Locke, right? Right. He made a note to think on that one more.
"So what about jogging my memory, how's that gonna work?" He blinked and then asked yet another question. "None of you are my family, are you? Where are they? Why aren't they here?" He was almost frightened of what the answer could be. Was his family dead? Did they not care?

Eva barely made any response to Xion coming in, after a while though her head finally made her give at least some form of conversation to Aiden. She felt like she should, and after some time of debating she finally sucked up the nerve to say something to him.
The blond stood up straight, walking a little toward Aiden, but not too far. "M-my name's Eva." she started, sounding a bit awkward. "I-I mean, it's Evangeline, like my brother, Anthony the doctor, just called me but I prefer Eva, and and..." she trailed off, catching herself before she went on a full rant on something that wasn't even important. 'Pull yourself together, dammit!' She scowled at herself mentally.
She sighed, deciding to try again. "We're kinda friends, I guess you could say." she decided to explain. "Um, I mean, we knew each other, but not for too long, and I heard you were my brother's patient so I decided to check on you and all..." Okay, so that last part was a lie, but how else could she explain wanting to see him if she hadn't even known him that long? She scratched her head nervously. "I think I'll shut up now..." she muttered, embarrassed as she leaned back on the wall, this time closer to where Aiden was at. Great, now he was probably going to think she was a freak or something. Wait, why did she even care what he thought?
